The show portrays them interacting all the time, but of course some of the jokes are sterotypical. That is just what makes things funny sometimes.
I'm not certain that only white people are at fault for continuing use of sterotypes either. Anyone watch the comedy of Dat Phan on Last Comic Standing ? - just a thought.
